Background Channel HDRI - not visible in viewport

Hi all.

Is there a way to see the chosen HDRI from the Maxwell Rhino Plugin in the main Rhino viewport?

I would like to manipulate the reflections by rotating the HDRI and therefor need the HDRI to be visible in the main Rhino viewport (Perspective view), just like it is possible in Maxwell Studio!
Is there a way?

Any thoughts?

Cheers

You can show one of the IBL channel HDRIs in the viewport using the plugin's Environments toolbar (see here), but it will not give proper reflections in Rhino, so for that, you need to use FIRE.
